What Do You Want to Be When You Grow Up?
During high school, young adults are often asked to make decisions regarding post-secondary education that can have a profound and lasting impact on their lives in the future.
We investigate what factors in high school may be related to future academic performance.
Research Question
Question: How is college GPA related to prospective career path in high school? How are other characteristics about a student’s background and high school environment related to their college GPA?
This study aims to investigate whether students who have a desired future career path in the 9th grade perform better than students who do not, and if choice of career path matters.
Data
- High School Longitudinal Study of 2009 (HSLS:09) from the National Center for Education Statistics.
- Interviewed 9th graders across the United States in 2009.
- Followed up with subjects in three subsequent interview rounds.
- Offers a variety of information on students, parents, and school.
Key Variables
Response Variable: College GPA
Primary Predictor of Interest: Desired occupation at age 30.
- A categorical variable with 22 occupation groups.
Additional predictors:
- Academic: High school GPA, credits earned for AP/IB courses, School engagement, Stem/non-stem desired occupation
- Geographic and Socioeconomic Factors: Family Income, High School urbanicity, High School type
A Look at Desired Occupation
Desired Occupation and Academic Performance
Color-coded by Planned student occupation at age 30
Model: Simple Linear Regression
Set reference group to those students who answered “Don’t Know”.
Model takes the form of \(College\_GPA = \beta_0 + \beta_1future\_job + \epsilon\).
Results: Simple Linear Regression
- Showing only results with a p-value < 0.10.

Remove Urbanicity & School Belonging?
- Urbanicity: Betas for all 4 categories (City, Rural, Suburb, & Town) are insignificant at alpha = 0.10
- School Belonging: P-value for beta is 0.80
Lack of Fit Test
Null Hypothesis: \(\beta_7urbanicity\) = \(\beta_8school\_belonging\) = 0
Alternative hypothesis: either of the betas for these variables is a non-zero value
Use alpha = 0.10
Remove Urbanicity & School Belonging?

F-statistic: 71.1 on 58 and 7290 DF, p-value: < 2.2e-16Diagnostics
Constant Variance
Breusch-Pagan test yields a p-value < 0.0001.
Because the response variable is bound.
